"After my treatment trip abroad, during which Allah the Almighty blessed me with safety, health and well-being, I committed myself to the home quarantine measures for a period of two weeks, practising my work in managing government work and serving citizens from my residence. Commitment to preventive measures is a must for everyone to eliminate the pandemic peacefully for Bahrain and the entire world,” HRH Premier added.
 
HRH the Prime Minister stressed that the COVID-19 pandemic is a plight and a test for Mankind, scientific and medical progress and economic development, as well as for the peoples’ mettle, awareness and education, affirming that Bahrainis have proved to the whole world that true and successful investment is in the human element,  something that the Government of Bahrain had recognised from the beginning, and proves today the soundness of its policy, as reflected in Bahrainis’ success stories in medicine, security and media.
